I don't want to let go
time has not prevented the pain
I see your face in everyone
I think I'm slowly going insane

I know where to find you
I know where you've been
I know that finding you now
would cause me to sin

Is hell worth the hour with you
To feel your touch once more
stuck between heaven and hell
I'll make that choice to ignore

It is a tragedy to lose you
it is a gain to let go
it is temptation to hold on
to reap what I've sewn

Let go.

Is just that I cannot find the best way
to explain why I surrender myself to you
like you are the magnet to my steel heart
cause no matter how far I had run
I constantly bounce back to where you are

"I let you go, I did, but did you?" he asked
with me laying my head on his chest
we all know the obvious answer to that

I've tried understanding you
Though you always complicate things
You asked me to hold on
But it is best to let us go

I am always the one to blame
For everything that went wrong
It is like you were floating
While I was falling

You'd never sang me a love song
When I have written a hundred poems about you
I know you're lying when you said you still love me
Still believed in you anyway

Where's the good in goodbye?
Found it when I finally said,
Goodbye tears
Goodbye love that hurts
*Goodbye us
Finally I am letting go of you.

I drown in sadness
I don't let go
It's my curse
The curse of strings
Tied so tightly they choke me
I can't break the bonds
No matter how I try
I am caught in a web
Of memories
Of hope
Of dreams
Of the past
Cut short
By me
I am a knife
A knife that can't cut myself loose
Only scare away
I threaten, I menace
Yet I remain bonded

I suppose even the sharpest blades have their limits
For the guy who introduced me to anime, the guy who sat across from me for the first time two years ago, the guy who made me feel awful about myself, the guy that made me feel stupid, the guy that made me feel better, the guy who let me take him to see an awful and cliche christian film, the guy who wore number seven, the guy I really ******* up with, the guy who opened up to me in December in a google doc when we were supposed to be doing a history project but ending up having a six or so hour conversation, the guy with the most incredible and captivating eyes (blue or other wise) I've seen to date...

Please forgive me for being lonely and stupid and dumb and inconsiderate and pushy and emotional and rude and sick. I'm tired of one of us being mad at the other, can we just be friends? I haven't been able to stop thinking about how I keep ******* everything up with you.

Please give me another chance.
Just because I'm leaving
Doesn't mean I wont miss you
Just because I'm leaving
Doesn't mean Im not crying
Just because Im leaving
Doesn't mean my hearts not breaking
Just because I'm leaving
Doesn't mean I care about you any less
Just because I'm leaving
Doesn't mean I don't think of you everyday
Just because I'm leaving
Doesn't mean I don't want you to stay
Just because I'm leaving
Doesn't mean I want to go
I'm leaving because
I can't live in a world where I never know
We fight and you leave and it breaks my heart every time
Were only happy for 2 weeks at a time
That's why I'm leaving
My feelings for you hasn't changed  
I just hate feeling like my life is out of control

The clock is ticking away
And I just want you to stay
Don't ever walk away from me
Because I can't take it to see
That you saying goodbyes
And I with teary eyes
I don't want to let you go
And don't ever let me go

I''m letting go for good darling
I'm sick and tired of the quarreling
You say that you love me ever so much
That you want to be with me and feel my touch

Yet you never answer your phone
you don't ever reply, you leave me feeling alone
You get mad when I then make assumptions
Then you come up with all these presumptions

You can't even follow your own word
When I call you out, you act like a coward
You come up with the same excuses
With that my trust it reduces

You are not the one I remember falling for
That one must have died crumpled on the floor
I can't see the light with us anymore
Which is unfortunate, because only you I could adore

I'm letting go for good ***
Consider myself dead and done
I was hoping for a better outcome

I can no longer love what you have become
Happened on my birthday at that

Let me go to fade away
Just like I did in your mind today

Let me go to release the pain
So happiness we can obtain

Let me go to so I can understand
Why I was unable to be your man

Let me go so we can be free
Though I always think of you and me

Let me go...
So I can walk back around
To let you know...

*"I love you Darling, take my other hand"
Sometimes through the thick and thin, all you need is a second chance to truly be you in a relationship.

The broken pieces of my heart make his a whole

I've got to let go,
more than I thought
I already was.

I have got to cross
into the unknown
because of how much I love.
one year of not expecting anything to happen.
